I read about shared access signatures generated with stored access policies for Azure Storage from here.
I also read how to create this shared access signature with stored access policies for Azure Storage using PowerShell here.
However, I want to do the above using Azure Portal. I know how to generate an ad-hoc shared access signature. I also know how to create a stored access policy for a container in my Azure Blob.
How do I create a shared access signature with a stored access policy for an Azure Blob container in Azure Portal?
Simple answer to your question is that as of today you can't create a shared access signature (SAS) using a stored access policy in Azure Portal. This feature is not there yet. In fact, feature to create a SAS on a blob container is not there on the portal as of yet.
You can generate SAS for a container by right clicking on the container and select Get Shared Access Signature like we do in Storage Explorer using the preview Show activity on this post.

Stored access policies are not supported for the user delegation SAS or the account SAS. A shared access signature is a signed URI that points to one or more storage resources. The URI includes a token that contains a special set of query parameters. The token indicates how the resources may be accessed by the client.
Grant limited access to Azure Storage resources using shared access signatures (SAS) A shared access signature (SAS) provides secure delegated access to resources in your storage account without compromising the security of your data. With a SAS, you have granular control over how a client can access your data.
Preview of Storage Explorer is now available in Azure portal.

In fact, feature to create a SAS on a blob container is not there on the portal as of yet. You could only create account level SAS using Azure Portal.
If you need to create a SAS on a container using a stored access policy, please use Microsoft Storage Explorer tool (or any other storage explorer tool that has support for blobs management). Using this tool you will be able to specify a stored access policy when creating a SAS on the container.
